Abstract
► We explain the mechanism by which clumps of powders disperse on liquid surfaces. ► Capillary force pulls the particles of a clump into the interface. ► Newly adsorbed particles move away because of the flow they induce. ► Monolayer of particles clusters later because of lateral capillary forces.
